Not quiet

I might have been unlucky, but our room neighbor started to slam his room door at 6am. The sound was so loud that I did awake in shock every time. That happened about 10 times within an hour.

An adequate place to lay your head. Room was okay, very utilitarian. Wall AC plugs wouldn’t charge my phone. The curtain length allowed outside lighting to invade the room, right at pillow level. Staff were very nice, and it’s preferable to a hostel in my experience.

It is in a nice neighborhood. Street parking is difficult so I purchased the day pass to park on site. The rooms are barebones but clean. Shared bath so bring flipflops etc.

My wife and I stayed here for the Saturday of the Halifax Music Festival. ALL of the hotels were booked during this busy time of year. While the room itself is basically a college dorm room (no bathroom in the room) it met our needs for a place to sleep for the night. Reasonably priced, good location and pleasant/helpful staff made it a good place for us.

I stayed here for a concert at garrison grounds. 20-30 minute walking distance and 5-10 minute Uber. For the price it was well worth the money! I would consider staying here again. It was a little warm in the room but I asked for a fan at the front desk and they were more than happy to give us one. Also, the front desk attendant was very friendly and was able to let us check-in early.

A King's stay

This summer residence stay experience was exceptional on many fronts. The reception and the room preparation staff have been top notch. I highly recommend this location on a main bus line (route 1), a 2 km walk to downtown to the East passing by the fantastic Public Gardens as well as three away from Point Pleasant Park to the South. The colourful neighborhood is worth the walk to the Citadel. The student residence is roomy and impeccable. Worth the extra effort to stay out of the tourist zone of hotels. A definitive way to enjoy Halifax as a local.
